There are fish, vegetables, and meat tempura. The rice can be refilled, so you can sprinkle the soup stock steamed in a clay bottle to make the soup stock chazuke. It's also good for girls and dates.

I had a "Kyoto bowl eating comparison set" at Arashiyama Itsuki Chaya. The bowl that was renewed to the autumn menu has a shabu-shabu, and an additional menu, the super-luxury "Five Grains Fertility Tamatebako". It is a luxurious dish with crab meat and karasumi hidden under the matsutake mushrooms.

There are many items on the menu that look good on Instagram, and the "Banken Samon" made with cream cheese is so real that you feel sorry for eating it. On the other hand, you can also eat authentic Edomae sushi, and the price is very reasonable starting from 99 yen.

Arrived in about 5 minutes on foot from Kintetsu Nara Station. Udon shop where you can line up Mentouan's specialty is this reverse kitsune udon, "Kinchaku kitsune". When you break the sweet purse-aged fried tofu cooked with soup stock, you will find delicious udon noodles that are chewy. It also has a curry flavor. You can also take out, so it's also a souvenir from Nara.

Probably the most difficult and most delicious kushikatsu restaurant in Japan. Make reservations by calling thousands of times on the day of the reservation. A mysterious fried food that feels like it can be eaten forever without any stomach upset.

A historical sushi restaurant of the original 'Tsukami Zushi' made from freshly cooked warm rice and supreme seafood bought in the adjoining market. I love this sushi like malting in my mouth! ◎Their best-seller 'Uwamaze' has five sushi (1050 yen for lunch), and you can order more by five. Every seafood they use is excellent! There're people waiting in a line.

Maruyoshi's most-seller is Niku Kama-tama Udon Noodle (freshly boiled udon noodle mixed with egg and meat). To eat just only noodle, and roll the noodle with meat, you can eat as you like. When you finish to eat noodle, you can take a bite of rice to eat with the egg and meat left in your bowl.

Soft and creamy Oyako-don (soft stewed egg and chicken on rice) is very delicious. The meringue is fizzy in my mouth, and the stock is also wonderful. It's only 890 yen with salad, side dish, and Akadashi miso soup. I like this lunch very much.

It's a limited menu for only summer, which looks cool and makes us forget the hot climate of Kyoto. The dashi soup and sudachi (refreshing citrus fruit) has good gentle fragrances, and smooth soba noodle can bring my chopsticks continuously. The soup is really delicious that I want to drink all of it.

Mimikou (Ajimika) in EKIZO Kobe Sannomiya is a curry udon specialty store that has been loved in Kiyamachi, Kyoto. A cool and soothing goldfish that swims close to you. Amazing visuals ... Actually, it's an artistic curry udon noodle. The white one is a potato cream potage. Mellow creamy. Goldfish curry udon in love.

Choose two rice balls. I grilled salmon. Cod roe is made in Hokkaido Grilled cod roe Salmon is made in Hokkaido Toki salmon (Tokiraz) Since it is landed from spring to early summer, it is nutritious and has a lot of fat on its belly. First of all, Namul. Sesame oil is fragrant and slightly gentle seasoning. The side dishes are also delicious!
